Changelog

4.0.1 (2016-03-17)

  • Fix wrong dependency url in bower.json.

4.0.0 (2016-03-17)

  • gocept.jsform has a new name: ajja
  • There are also some API renamings that are incompatible to older versions:
    • The base CSS class name for ajja forms is now ajja and not jsform.
    • The jQuery function to initialize a submit button was renamed from jsform_submit_button() to form_submit_button.
    • If you include ajja`s sources manually (which is not recommended), make sure to now include `form.js instead of jsform.js.

3.0.1 (2016-03-17)

  • Introduce new API for template handling.
    • get_template(id) returns the compiled version of the template.
    • register_template(id, template, description)
      • allows you to register a template under the given id
      • can handle precompiled templates, plain html or an id selector to a dom node containing html
    • list_templates() returns a list of templates with id and description
  • Massively improved documentation.
  • Start measuring code coverage.

3.0.0 (2016-02-03)

  • Serve handlebars templates precompiled in src/templates.js to complete bower integration. (#23)

    Rename template source files. They are now accessible via gocept.jsform.templates variable in the application. This is an backwards incompatible change.

  • Update version pinnings.

    Depending on concrete pinnings for jquery(-ui) is not necessary as gocept.jsform supports jquery 1.x and 2.x. Also add explicit version pinnings for knockout and knockout-mapping as updating there by accident may break gocept.jsforms model behaviour.

2.8.0 (2015-12-09)

  • Add group widget and table widget which use list widget to render items in groups / as table. (#38)
  • Add new template to render numbers. (#15)
  • Throw an error during __init__ if selector for form node did not match. (#32)
  • Throw error when ListWidget.add_item receives malformed AJAX response. (#33)
  • Add form-control CSS class to textarea template.

2.7.2 (2015-12-04)

  • Refactor radio button template to use the same source API as object templates.

2.7.1 (2015-12-04)

  • Fixed syntax error.

2.7.0 (2015-12-04)

  • Suppress success messages in UI when saving all remaining fields.
  • Add new template than renders a list of radio buttons.

2.6.3 (2015-11-18)

  • Add some more translations.
  • Disable placeholder for select fields which are required.

2.6.2 (2015-11-17)

  • Unify node where form data is saved to.

2.6.1 (2015-11-16)

  • Fix initialization of sources if form data is provided directly instead of retrieving it via load url.
  • Make sure that after-load always fires asynchonously.

2.6.0 (2015-11-12)

  • Add option to switch one field or the whole form to readonly mode.

2.5.1 (2015-11-11)

  • Use bower-knockout-mapping in bower package instead of serving mapping plugin directly. (only effects bower package of gocept.jsform)

2.5.0 (2015-11-06)

  • Add list widget which uses jsform to display edit form of list items.
  • Remove version pin of Handlebars, since error related to Handlebars 4 is specific to the application that uses gocept.jsform.

2.4.0 (2015-09-08)

  • Pin version of Handlebars to 3.0.3, since switching to a new major version should be done on purpose, rather by chance.

2.3.0 (2015-07-31)

  • Display status messages 3 seconds instead of 1 second. This hopefully will fix test failures in Jenkins.
  • Introduced, that a save call to a widget can manipulate the source values of another widget. This is usefull for dropdowns, where the list of available values is dependend from the selected value of another dropdown.

2.2.0 (2015-06-17)

  • Fix display of validation error messages.
  • Make it possible to display custom HTTP error messages when message was provided in the JSON response.

2.1.0 (2015-04-09)

  • If ajax result is HTML instead of JSON data, display HTML (which is in most cases a 500 error or login page). (#11838)

2.0.0 (2015-03-26)

  • Render the token as the <option value> attribute, so we get the best of both worlds: internally we deal with objects, but the DOM looks “normal” (and other DOM-based libraries like select2 can interface with it).
  • Package the browser resources as a bower package.
  • Switch from json-template.js to Handbars.js for templating. (#13804)
  • Fixed a bug where using select fields with dynamic options (sources) triggered a save request with empty value upon creation in the UI.

1.2.0 (2014-10-22)

  • Improved handling of object and multiselect fields such that the values loaded are actually just the values, with select options being passed as the source field option. This is an important backwards-incompatible change.

  • Added a field option multiple that, when truthy and the selected type is object, makes the field be considered a list of objects. When using the default templates, this turns a select widget into multi-select.

  • When loading values into a form via the JS API rather than via HTTP as JSON, assume full objects, not tokens to be contained.

  • Add textarea template.

  • Added the concept of required fields which cannot be saved when blank.

  • More Bootstrap 3 compatibility.

  • Simplified HTML mark-up of form elements.

  • Removed the package metadata’s implicit dependency on the test extra.

  • Use classy classes.

  • Consider HTTP error responses unrecoverable errors. This distinguishes them from time-outs and connection errors.

  • Add loaded property on Form, a Deferred so clients can check whether loading has finished. This is mainly helpful for tests, e.g.:

    selenium.waitForEval(
        '$("#jsform").data("form") && '
        '$("#jsform").data("form").loaded.state()', '"resolved"')
    
  • Expose the get_template function for reuse outside the Form class.

  • If an empty string is specified as form_template, just use the existing form DOM node without applying any template.

  • Add jQuery plugin $().jsform_submit_button(callback) that sets up a button that saves the jsform and calls a function after the successful save.

1.1 (2014-04-07)

  • Propagate save message of server using after-save trigger.
  • Added infrastructure for displaying and clearing status messages, use it for announcing HTTP faults during AJAX calls.
  • Display and clear field-related errors both at the widget and via status messages.
  • When saving data, count anything but a JSON response with a status value of “success” as an error. Give up completely after an incomprehensible response, retry on connection errors either after the next successful server access for any other field, or when requested by a call to retry().
  • Added an API method save_remaining() that causes any fields to be saved that have not been modified so far. While this should only save the initial values loaded from the server, it is useful to apply the same validation and error handling to all fields.
  • Added an API method when_saved(retry) that returns a promise that aggregates any pending and completed save calls, either propagating the retry behaviour of single fields (the default) or failing on server errors.
  • Provide a visual clue and status message while saving a field.
  • Some refactoring to improve code readability.
  • Made code pass jshint check.
  • Made default and currently not overrideable status message behaviour compatible to bootstrap 3
  • Properly unsubscribe change handlers when updating fields.
  • Added simple localization.

1.0 (2013-12-13)

  • Remove console calls as they are not understood by all browsers.

0.8 (2013-12-10)

  • Fixed: jsform did not render in IE8 if form template started with line break.

0.7 (2013-12-03)

  • Add ability to send a CSRF token with every request. This token must be available via the id csrf_token (can be customized) in the DOM.
  • Added minified versions of javascript resources.

0.6 (2013-09-06)

  • Bugfix: Use indexOf instead of startsWith, which is not available on all browsers.

0.5 (2013-09-06)

  • Declare for attribute on form labels.
  • Store “save on change” subscriptions so they can be cancelled.
  • Ignore null values for data fields. (#1)

0.4 (2013-08-27)

  • Made it possible to define templates as template files on file system.

0.3 (2013-08-27)

  • Add events after-load and after-save.
  • Fix JSON serialization to be able to handle Knockout observables.
  • Added reload functionality to the form class.

0.2 (2013-08-26)

  • Made it possible to preselect values in arrays when the form is rendered.
  • Changed form submit behaviour:
    • Default submit type is not POST instead of GET. (Change it with the save_type option)
    • Data is now submitted as JSON type.
